Hello and Greetings from Goa I am Mario, The Goa that I grew up in was very different from what it is today. It had a charm that was unique and a culture that was still strongly influenced by its gripping past. This led me to become very interested in learning all about my delightful homeland at a very young age. Digging through the rich cultural heritage of Goa soon turned into a desire to share its beauty with others. Turning my passion into a profession, I worked my way to becoming a licensed tour guide who is recognized by the Goa State Tourism Department, and has over 20 years of experience leading tours across Goa. A tour with me will always be accompanied with interesting facts and stories about Goa's enthralling history and fascinating culture. The enthusiasm and passion that I have for Goa is contagious and will leave you captivated as I guide you through my quaint and unforgettable homeland. My tours are suitable for all travelers and families, right from the oldest to the youngest. They can be personalized to accommodate your needs, so do not hesitate to share your thoughts and preferences. Whether you are a first-time visitor or you are a seasoned traveller, I will do my best to make your visit unique! My five-star ratings are a testimony to my professional excellence, so you can expect a memorable experience as we explore this beautiful coastal state and all it has to offer.

Overview of your Goa tour

Join me on an enchanting tour of south Goa . I like this tour particularly because it connects all the various elements of the former Goan society like traditional activities of agriculture and fishing & the various traditional implements that were being used are displayed in this Goan museum . Be intrigued to know about the first Capital of Goa Chandor, where trade and commerce of the earlier rulers settled on the banks of the Khushavati river took place. Unravel the mysteries of this forgotten capital city with a visit to an age old heritage mansion. An opportune moment to visit another Heritage House that was built by a catholic missionary who settled in a village called Quepem and developed it for the betterment of the villagers. A freedom of choice to savour on a home cooked meal by the present owner made from age old Goan recipes handed down from generation to generation. If time permits we finally experience a local market and see the local produce of Goa
